Description
Debris Tracker is an open data citizen science movement, powered by Morgan Stanley. Join us in creating a bigger picture of the plastic pollution crisis by using the app to report litter wherever you find it, from our oceans to your backyard. Every day, dedicated educational, non-profit, and scientific organizations and passionate citizen scientists from all around the world use the Debris Tracker app to record GPS data on inland and marine debris. To date, Debris Tracker users have contributed 2 million items to our open-data platform, hosted at the University of Georgia and accessible to researchers and curious citizens everywhere. Together we can create a more comprehensive understanding of marine debris and plastic pollution by collecting and sharing data, generating scientific findings, informing policy, and inspiring upstream solutions.
See our website for more information on how to get started or to download data: http://www.marinedebris.engr.uga.edu/. Debris Tracker is a joint effort of the NOAA Marine Debris Program and the Southeast Atlantic Marine Debris Initiative (SEA-MDI) out of the University of Georgia College of Engineering. Continued use of GPS in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Ratings and Reviews
Stopped working
Had been working fine for a while, but stopped adding up my submissions for the past 6 months. I’ve deleted & redownloaded and also logged out & relogged in. I’ve tried messaging the company via FB messenger & commenting on their FB post. No response.
Update: Needed a reinstall for it to upload
Edit: my issue below was fixed after I reinstalled the app. It now seems to work without issue. Docking one star just for its inconsistent use of uploading, but otherwise the app I feel is great.
This app is easy to use, and everything is laid out nicely, but ultimately doesn’t work at the most important step, uploading your data. As soon as I try to upload my data, it tells me something went wrong and to cancel. I haven’t been able to upload any of the information I collected, making the app currently useless.
One of a kind!
Marine Debris Tracker comes with a handful of bugs but when it works it’s perfect for everything my friends have been looking for!
